[Verse 1] Hope for snow at a quiet dawn Frost on the window pane Branches cut into clear blue sky And the wind carries your name [Chorus 1] Run river, run, to the sea Water always wants to be free [Verse 2] Light a fire to keep the night at bay And the wolves from the door Watch those words rise with a smoke And shadows dance on the floor [Chorus 2] Run river, run, to the sea Water always wants to be free Run river, run, over me Water take away my memory Water take away my memory [Chorus 2] Run river, run, to the sea Water always wants to be free Run river, run, over me Water take away my memory Water take away my memory [Bridge] Water take away my memory Water take away my memory Water take away my memory [Chorus 2] Run river, run, to the sea Water always wants to be free Run river, run, over me Water take away my memory Water take away my memory [Outro] Water take away my memory
